Is it possible to remove the Coarse tune pot from the circuit? I just want to use the FM inputs to control the frequency. Basically, I would want to replace the coarse tune pot with a fixed resistor... maybe 50K so it sits half way through its range? How would I wire it?

no need to do this. just leave off the potentiometer R43 and the according input resistor R29.
you don't need the fine coarse control then either? (R44, R56)

Here's my panel. How do you like them's apple's? 8hp. No coarse tune. I will mostly be controlling this via Silent Way or use a DC offset module.

I'm planning to use a long/flexible enough cable that I can lay them side-by-side/flat while I'm testing and tweaking and then fold it over and mount parallel but back to back as you say, Fonik. Needs a 2U wide dotcom panel to fit the jacks and knobs anyway, and it fits in parallel very nicely. (in my plans anyway )

Hmm... I don't know what to do with the matched transistors and 3k tempco I got from MFOS. Should I do it exactly like the picture above? Except I have thermal paste. Should I do it like the picture above except put thermal paste inbetween the transistors and sit the tempco on top and have some thermal paste on that as well?

Or maybe I can put the tempco between the transistors so the transistors touch the tempco and not each other and have thermal paste all inbetween?
